I tested with 5 virtual disks.

diff meminfo.v4.1-rc4 diff meminfo.fbccf1df0
-Slab:              16908 kB
-SReclaimable:       8708 kB
-SUnreclaim:         8200 kB
-KernelStack:        1456 kB
-PageTables:         1496 kB
+Slab:              17492 kB
+SReclaimable:       8860 kB
+SUnreclaim:         8632 kB
+KernelStack:        2144 kB
+PageTables:         1480 kB

The KernelStack increase is because now we create bio pool for each
request_queue.

Could you send me the kernel config and full qemu command?
I'll try to reproduce it.
